Folding wings

Chapter 72 Chapter 72

This is the first time that Mo Jihan has been able to watch the city in such a relaxed manner. As the capital of a country, even though it was affected by the war before, it always recovers faster after it settles down.It was snowing heavily this early in the morning, and many people came out to make a living for the day.

The smell of food is wafting all over the street. The business in the shop is very good in the early morning, and there are all kinds of hawkers. A big bowl of hot wonton or noodles with a big white and fat steamed bun can make you feel energetic after a day's work. Son.All the snow on the street was shoveled off early in the morning, and now there is only a thin layer on the ground, which is easier to walk on.

Seeing that Mo Jihan lifted the curtain to look out, Ren Ji asked, "Are you still hungry? If you want to eat something else, I'll ask someone to buy it."

Mo Jihan shook his head, "I just want to watch, it's very lively."

Ren Ji saw that he was in a good mood with a smile on his lips, so he couldn't help but ask for credit: "Do you like it? I'll take you out for a walk when I have time in the future. This street is specially designated to open a market, and there are special people to guard it. Whether it is a shop or a hawker, there is a tax, which is divided into grades, and the tax is not high. Look at these people who carry the burden to the city to sell vegetables. Every time the tax of three copper coins can be exchanged for a brand of the day, the next time they come again It is very convenient to exchange and easy to manage, so tax collectors dare not pump oil at will, and those local ruffians don’t want to make trouble at will.”

"This method was proposed by Li Shilang from the former Ministry of Household Affairs. He swore in the notebook that it would effectively relieve the pressure on the national treasury, but he was almost drowned by the spit of those old men."

Mo Jihan didn't know much about these things, but he was very interested, "Oh? Is it really effective? It sounds like this method can indeed stabilize the market, but can it really enrich the national treasury?"

Mo Jihan was aware of the embarrassment of the treasury. Although he didn't know much about people's livelihood and politics, he had a thorough understanding of all aspects of military operations.War is not only fought by good generals and soldiers, but also by financial resources in many cases.

In the past, the two countries raised troops year after year, and the consumption of the national treasury was terrible. Taking this bandit raid as an example, it seems that it was just a group of bandits who fought, and the cost of mobilizing troops, food fodder, weapons, livestock, etc. was also very high. There are not a few of them, not to mention that they have failed several times before, which is also an extremely heavy burden for a country that has just begun to recuperate.Therefore, when it was discovered that someone had the guts to sell weapons privately, Ren Ji was so furious that he mercilessly killed them all.

There was also a tinge of joy in Ren Ji's voice, "It's really effective, otherwise I wouldn't be able to take out so many shells to smash the mountain, hahahaha. If it weren't for his method, the ammunition would be at least half, and it would be much more difficult to fight. You can't come back so soon, but it will take several months."

Mo Jihan laughed, "It's strange that I saw so many supplies when I counted the supplies. I thought you had emptied the arsenal in the camp. But the den of thieves did choose a good place. If heavy artillery is not used to open the way, the casualties of the forwards may be very high." Double it."

Ren Ji hugged him and dawdled, "In addition to this square market, there is another one at the South Gate. There are some high-end shops over there, and the tax is relatively high. Now I plan to register all the shops on the street. All the inconvenient ones should be moved, and some inconvenient ones should be centralized and managed as much as possible. Whoever dares to sell things secretly and owe me taxes, I will let him have no food!!"

That tone was no different from that of a bandit.

"You don't know, Li Shilang stuck his neck up and bet with those old guys. When the account books are collected in January, the old guys are like wilted eggplants. Two of them have retired and returned home, which saves me. Nothing."

"I'm afraid you instigated it."

Ren Ji raised his eyebrows, "How can you say it's instigation? Of course we should seize such a good opportunity. After all, these few still know how to measure. At least I will give them some dignity by going this way, let them hide their strengths and bide their time, and educate them well." The principle of being an heir."

Talking like this, the carriage gradually turned off, left the noisy market, entered a sparsely populated alley, and stopped in front of an inconspicuous small courtyard. Ren Ji led Mo Jihan there As soon as he walked in, the carriage kicked away.

This is a small courtyard with three entrances. It is tidy but not very popular. After passing through the main hall, there is a study room on the left. He went to the candlestick next to the bookshelf and lifted the candlestick vigorously, and the bookcase moved away without a sound, revealing a secret door behind it.

Ren Ji took Mo Jihan's hand: "Let's go, walk back from here quickly. That little guy hasn't seen me yet, and I don't know if he will cry again."

Listening to him talking, Mo Jihan thought to himself, "No matter how disgusting you are, you're still a father."
